How to Make Weekend Brunch Eggs And Sausage Casserole

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Generously grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with 2 tablespoons of butter.
Cook 1 pound of pork sausage in a skillet, breaking it up into large pieces, until browned. Drain any excess fat and set aside to cool.
In a small bowl, combine 4 cloves of minced garlic and 4 tablespoons of softened butter with ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese.
Slice a 1-pound loaf of bread in half lengthwise.
Spread a thin layer of the garlic butter mixture on both cut sides of the bread.
Arrange the two bread slices side by side in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the bread.
In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half), and 2 tablespoons chopped green onions until frothy (about 3 minutes). Stir in ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and bread.
Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
At this point, you can cover the casserole tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 12 hours.
If refrigerating, remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking.
Bake covered with a large piece of buttered aluminum foil for 30 minutes.
Carefully remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the top is puffed and the eggs are set and cooked through. Add cooked crumbled bacon to the top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
